A Night of Hockey and Music

Milwaukee, WI— The Milwaukee Admirals close out the first half of the season this weekend as they host the Chicago Wolves on Friday, January 27 at 7:00 pm. The following night, the Ads travel to Rockford to face the IceHogs in the final game before the All Star break.

Besides great hockey action, there will be plenty to sing about after the game on Friday as the Admirals host National Recording artist, Dierks Bentley as part of the team’s annual FM106/Coors Light Country Music Night. Bentley will take the stage approximately 30 minutes following the game.

Bentley's studio albums have accounted for 16 singles on the country singles charts, of which eight have reached No. 1: his debut single "What Was I Thinkin'", as well as "Come a Little Closer", "Settle for a Slowdown", "Every Mile a Memory", "Free and Easy (Down the Road I Go)", "Feel That Fire", "Sideways", and "Am I the Only One".

Bentley, who has season tickets with the Nashville Predators, has written or co-written most of his hit songs, including "What Was I Thinkin', "My Last Name," "How Am I Doin'", "Lot of Leavin' Left to Do," "Come a Little Closer," "Every Mile a Memory" and "Feel That Fire."

The music doesn’t stop with Dierks Bentley, fellow country music singer Erica Hoyt, a K-Nation recording artist, will be performing in the East Atrium before the game as well as during the intermissions.
